Here’s your second opportunity to contribute to the great tradition of chocolate-specific culinary literature while enjoying a visit to Sunset Park.The cache is located at the listed coordinates and its puzzle is very simple – just include a chocolate themed haiku in your online log. Haiku is defined as “a Japanese verse form, rendered in English as three unrhymed lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables respectively (total 17 syllables) often on some subject in nature”. And what better natural subject is there than the delectable cocoa tree, source of all things chocolate. No wonder it’s named “theobroma”, Food of the Gods. This cache is your chance to enter the vast semi-charted territory of chocolate literature by composing a small poem – a haiku – to celebrate your favorite form of chocolate.
Summertime ice cream, Swirled with fudgy chocolate, Completes a picnic.
TO LOG A FIND FOR THIS PUZZLE CACHE: 1) Find the cache and sign its logbook, and 2) When you log your find online, write a tribute to the Great Dark Goddess, Chocolate – in haiku form. This is not a literary skills test; it’s for entertainment purposes only. Three lines about chocolate - five syllables in the first, seven in the second, and five in the third – and the prize is yours. A park bench close to the cache offers a place to sit while you contemplate chocolate-inspired thoughts. THE PUZZLE AND THE DIFFICULTY RATING ARE DUE TO THE HAIKU REQUIREMENT, SO LOGS THAT DO NOT INCLUDE AN ORIGINAL CHOCOLATE HAIKU WILL BE DELETED.
The container is 2 to 3 inches high and less than an inch across with a wire loop at the top to wind around what it's attached to. Remove the entire entity and unscrew the bottom to get the logbook. Then rewind the log tightly, stuff it into the smaller top, and screw the larger bottom over it.
You will need to bring your own writing implement.
Muggle alert: skateboarders and runners are frequently sighted on the trail, so please be stealthy.
Cascades of hot fudge, vanilla-scented truffles, cocoa-dusted cakes, pans of warm brownies, fizzy chocolate sodas - the next best thing to eating them is writing about them. Which exquisite form of chocolate will you choose for your haiku?
